The Most Disturbing Movie I Have Ever Watched
Ok, someone recommended this movie to me, and to be honest, I’m pretty upset that I took their recommendation and watched it.
This movie is actually based on a true story, and it’s called “Girl In The Basement.” Have you seen it? If you haven’t, you can catch it on Hulu right now.
Remember the story of the girl who lived in Austria whose father locked her in the basement for 20 something years?
I was actually looking to end my weekend on a chill note, people. Then I put this movie on, so you know exactly what happened next…no chill night for Tight Shirt Tony. Story of my life!
It’s a good movie to watch but be warned, you are not going to catch “chill vibes” from it. You will be on the edge of your seat the entire time.
Spoiler alert, this happens just 26 minutes into the movie.
But don’t worry ladies. It’s still the perfect drama flick for a wine and dine kinda night!
Watch the trailer below:
Here is how Lifetime describes the movie:
Inspired by actual events, Girl in the Basement is the horrific story of Sara (Stefanie Scott), a vibrant teen girl who was looking forward to her 18th birthday so she could move away from her controlling father Don (Judd Nelson). But before she could ever blow out the candles, her world became extremely dark after Don imprisons her in the basement of their home. While Don tries to convince wife Irene (Joely Fisher) that Sara ran away, he would secretly visit her in the basement to torture and rape her while Irene and her sister Amy (Emily Topper) continued living upstairs. As the years pass, Sara gives birth to several children, alone in the basement. Don eventually brings up their youngest son, leaving him on the doorstep for Irene to find with a note from Sara saying that was her son and she couldn’t care for him, leaving Irene to finally accept Don’s claims about Sara. After decades of captivity, Sara finally escapes, and her family learns the devastating truth about what had been going on for over 20 years right beneath their feet.
